Average Sized Penis
What is an averaged-sized penis? How can you tell if your penis is larger or smaller than most men? What is “average” anyway? In general, an average erect penis is 5 to 6 inches long (12.7 to 15.25 centimeters) and the average non-erect penis is 3 to 4 inches long (7.6 to 11.4 centimeters). The average girth (circumference) is 4.5 to 5.5 inches when measured erect at mid-shaft.

Measuring Your Penis

In order to track your progress on ThePenisEnvy.com program, it’s a good idea to measure yourself before you begin. Don’t worry about how large or small it may be; don’t fudge the numbers to be larger or smaller than they are. Take an accurate measurement of your penis--length and girth, erect and flaccid (not erect).

To measure the length of your penis while it’s erect, stand up and hold your erection horizontally in front of you. Press the ruler against your public bone and measure the length of your penis, from your torso to the penile head.

If you’d rather, you can also measure your erect length without having an erection like this: grab hold of either side of the penis head and pull out the penis as far as it can go. Shift your weight and angle until you achieve the same measurement as you do while your penis is erect. Make a note of this position and use it every time you measure your penis--it should be the same measurement as your erection.

To measure the girth of your penis while it’s erect, wrap a measuring tape around the middle of your shaft (halfway down the middle of your penis).

To measure the length and girth of your non-erect penis, it’s best to take many measurements. Since the penis is a skittish critter, it’s best to measure when it’s hot and cold, before and after exercising, before and after urinating, etc. Ensure an unbiased measurement by averaging all measurements.

Another way to track your progress is by visually comparing your penis to other objects--is it as long as your toothbrush? Thick as a toilet paper tube? Look at your penis in the mirror and contrast its size to an object nearby. Use the same object every time in order to observe your success.
